space doesn't push words in java eclipse when editing

I am trying to edit codes in java eclipse neon but i cant push words using the space button but instead it over rights the next letters. how do i fix this.

For instance if i want to type the word new between the word Object and rowData[][] in the code below.

 Object rowData[][] = { { "Row1-Column1"...

The result will be

 Object newData[][] = { { "Row1-Column1"...

It does not push the other codes forward. it just over rights the next letters instead.

Try pressing the "Insert" button on your key board, my guess is you hit it by accident, I know it happens to me all the time. If you have a mac, I believe Fn and enter (the one from the numeric pad) keys combined should give same effect as the insert key so press that to reverse it. You may need to restart eclipse after pressing it, I know I sometimes have to do that as well.
